 Santa Barbara Edhat - Broccoli
Broccoli is an excellent source of vitamins A (strictly speaking, of the A-precursor beta-carotene) and C as well as of iron and calcium and it's got a lot of those other micronutrients that are so popular nowadays.
Broccoli is also a good source of flavor.
It tends to be less sulpherous than some members of the cabbage family, and its combination of nut carrot and cabbage flavors with algal tones mixes well with anything from potatoes, white (think 'bubble and squeak') to potatoes, sweet, carrots or cauliflower, and works well with a range of herbs and spices.

 TIME Magazine | Bond - The Man with the Golden Run
Barbara was "a general dogsbody on set from the time I started," recalls Roger Moore, who says "she inherited a lot of her father's talent." By 1985, she was an assistant director on A View to a Kill, a film Michael co-wrote and co-produced.
The Broccolis aren't obstructionist, says a studio insider, but "they are very adamant about the things James Bond can and cannot do." One perennial suggestion that always gets vetoed is for new larger-than-life villains à la Blofeld, who bedeviled Bond in five of the first seven films.
Broccoli's standard reply to queries on that topic: "That's like walking down the aisle and being asked who your next husband will be." Well, maybe, but we do want to know.

They are the intensely private and fiercely protective heirs guarding the legacy of their late father, Albert R. "Cubby" Broccoli, a Long Island vegetable farmer-turned-Hollywood showman who almost single-handedly built author Ian Fleming's secret agent into a global star and pop-culture icon.
So protective are Broccoli's heirs that they once commissioned a confidential 60-page Bond "character bible" that continues to serve as something of an owners' manual.
But Broccoli was an accomplished salesman of big action movies, having honed his skills early in life hawking caskets and jewelry.

 Cubby Broccoli - Britmovie Forums   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-05)
Albert Romolo [Cubby] Broccoli (1909-1996), film producer, was born on 5 April 1909 in Hoyt Avenue, Long Island, New York, the son of Giovanni Broccoli (c.1870-c.1932), a labourer, and his wife, Cristina, nee Vence (c.1884-1965), a former cook to H. Marvin, whose Biograph company had discovered the pioneer director D. Griffith.
Broccoli had contemplated adapting the spy thrillers of Ian Fleming in the late 1950s but it was only after he went into partnership with Canadian producer Harry Saltzman that James Bond finally reached the screen.
However, it proved to be Broccoli's last involvement with the Bond series, as he died of cardiac problems in Beverly Hills, California, on 27 June 1996, by which time, reportedly, half the world's population had seen a Bond movie.

Yes, and no: it's Broccoli Spigarello, a variety producing masses of leaves and tiny florets.
You'll recognize the taste, but it's more concentrated and focussed than broccoli florets, without any of the acid undertone often found there.
Its strong but not dominant flavor mixes well with other cooked greens, and it would work very well in either a 'white' or a 'red' lasagne, or in ravioli or calzone.
